The Betty Wicked 1st Anniversary Playing Cards
By John Daniel Taylor IV

I'm sure Betty Wicked is a great comic book with a following.  But this is an MPC-made deck with a generic set of faces.  I've seen more exciting tourism decks.  Not even worth $13 for a single deck.  Had they given this a real effort at a more fully custom job, sure.  If the price was sharply less, yes, great.  But this price for that product?  Nope.

This seems to be a "Lets just make something." kind of project. They clearly have the artist available to create something classic to commemorate the one year anniversary of their comic. I'm not saying it would have been stellar or terrible, just that there are options there for sure. If it was a well planned out deck with good design and art.... Probably would go somewhere and expanded their brand. We'll see what they do next year since this seems to be a yearly offering from them on KS.
